Droid X (Milestone X?) and Droid 2 (Milestone 2?) Headed to Europe?

We’re not sure what Motorola would call these devices if they did end up getting European counterparts, but new rumors suggest that the Motorola Droid X and the yet-to-be-announced Motorola Droid 2 could be headed to Europe. French Android blog FrAndroid reports that the Droid X will be launched near the end of the year, with the Droid 2 soon to follow.

We can’t confirm their source (nor do the pictures give us any indication that this rumor has any legs – the devices pictured are Verizon-branded, though FrAndroid claims it’s because they’re prototypes and their designs have yet to be finalized) but I’m sure Motorola’s not going to ignore the European market for their latest flagship phones.

@xmetl I doubdt it – shadow was probably an internal codename like sholes for the droid/milestone..

End of the year? If that HTC Vision comes out soon, i wont be waiting.

I personally think they’ll stick with Milestone but add a model number like the XT720. Although if the designs stay similar to the Droid X and Droid 2 then Shadow would be a cool name! It sounds menacing and a little sinister like Droid does for Verizon.

Well this is another option for me if Samsung doesn’t get a GSM version of their upcoming 4G Verizon phone out the door fast enough.

Alot of people think that the Droid 2 will make the original Droid obsolete. I can not really agree with that. I think that the Droid will have a life similar to the G1. The G1 carried on because regular non-tech people liked it. I think this will be true of the Droid especially if they cut the price.
